Here is some information about the best sport ever...
ROCK CLIMBING!!!
Each climbing route has a different rating. The rating is based on levels of exposure and the difficulty of the crux. The crux is the most difficult part of the climb. It usually requires a series of 1-3 moves.
These are the ratings and the level that goes with the climbs-
5.6- Beginner. Usually not steep.
5.7- Beginner.
5.8- Intermediate.
5.9- Intermediate. Gradually getting more steep.
5.10- Advanced. Maybe small overhangs.
5.11- Advanced
5.12- Expert. Lots of exposure and overhangs.
5.13- Expert.
5.14- World Class. If you can do this... wow.
5.15- World Class. If you can do this... get a sponser, a TV show, and a big bank account.
Also, there are ratings within the ratings. (I know that doesn't make sense, but it will.) There are also a,b,c, and d. So for example, a 5.9a is only a tiny bit harder than a 5.8d.
About me...
My independant reading book is the Pilgrims of Rayne. It is he 8th installment of the Pendragon series. It is a really, REALLY good series!!!!!!!!! It doesn't have anything to do with pens, dragons, or Arthur Pendragon from the sword in the stone thing. It is a great mix between fantasy, historical fiction, and biography. The author has an unusual writing style which is really appealing to kids. I highly recomend reading it.
